[QUOTE="Superteeth2478, post: 3613423, member: 73024"] The sad part is that it isn't even something that needs to be "taken advantage" of. The language is pretty clear. "As long as work is available" means they can give each M-friend driver 9.5 hours of work and no more or less, and send all the rest home because their work was already delivered by combination drivers in loads that were advanced on the weekend. And BUG, your point about the supplementals superseding the NMA if the terms are more favorable in the supplemental is a good point (except in the case of specific language where the NMA supersedes all other language)...except for the fact that a lot of people are under the impression that the negotiating committee for the NMA can't possibly have the interests of the workers in mind to allow language like that in the NMA in the first place. Who's to say that the supplemental negotiating committees won't use that same language in reference to the 8-hour guarantee as well? Sure, it's a conspiracy theory, but look at what the IBT leadership is touting as the greatest contract since sliced bread... [/QUOTE]
